I’m The King Chapter 221: :King Wulie

;"Correct the old Qin, go to the country together, don't shed blood, don't stop fighting..." The high-spirited war songs in the city rang out from time to time, and King Wulie of Qin put his hands on the window sill, listening to the impassioned singing In his heart, the fierce war songs sung by countless rough voices are better than those sung by those kabukis in the palace with the accompaniment of melodious instruments. It can make him feel relaxed and happy.

The Black Ice Terrace is the tallest building in Xianyang City, and the place where King Qin Wulie is standing is the highest place of the Black Ice Terrace. From the outside, the tallest palace in Xianyang is magnificent and beautiful. Huan, but if you walk in, you will be surprised. Compared with the magnificence of the outside, the spacious hall inside is empty. There is nothing, no decoration, no furniture, except for the thick pillars. In this hall, there is nothing else to be found.

Of course, his special place is on the floor of this hall. The pure black stone is polished to a smoothness, and the white lines go back and forth, but what is outlined in the hall is a scene including Looking at the map of the entire Central Plains countries, whenever King Qin Wulie walked in this hall, the entire Central Plains would be trampled under his feet.

The singing in the city seems to never stop, one wave just goes, another wave rises again, King Qin Wulie's face is full of excitement, he turns around, and there is a clang, in his own palace, this Qin The supreme ruler of the country actually wore a full set of armor, and every time he took a step, the armor pages hit each other, making a dull sound.

"Correct the old Qin, go to the national calamity together, don't shed blood, don't stop fighting!" King Wulie of Qin hummed softly, his burly figure hurriedly walked in the hall, making noises, "The two lovers , Every time I hear this song, my blood boils, my whole body is full of fighting spirit, and I want to get on my horse and charge forward!"

In front of King Qin Wulie, two generals also wearing armored stomachs sat cross-legged on the icy ground with their helmets in front of them and their hands on their knees. White, although the face is full of wrinkles, but the lines are like engraved on the face, it looks extremely rigid, the other is about forty, at first glance, it seems to be a white-faced scholar, but if you look closely, you can see it. One can see that this person is different, that is, his pair of eyes are extremely sharp. In front of King Qin Wulie, he looks down most of the time, but occasionally looks up, but it is hard to hide the murderous look.

These are the two most famous generals in Qin State, Yingteng and Li Xin.

Ying Teng belongs to the royal family and is the uncle of King Qin Wulie, while Li Xin is the childhood partner of King Qin Wulie. The two are also the people most trusted by King Qin Wulie. The standing army of the Qin Army in the hands of these two people almost accounts for the entire Qin State. Seventy percent of.

Hearing King Qin Wulie's emotion, Ying Teng frowned slightly, but Li Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, your duty is to strategize above the temple, to rejuvenate the country and strengthen the people, and to win a thousand miles. Leave the matter to me and the old general Yingteng. You don't have to count on such things as swinging a knife."

King Qin Wulie walked up to the two of them and sat down cross-legged, "You two are really boring, why don't you give me a hug and make me happy?"

"Praise the king, there are jesters in the palace." Ying Teng said honestly: "The king, ministers and Li Xin are all important ministers and generals of the country. It may happen often, but it never happens to make the king happy."

King Qin Wulie's face darkened when he heard these unkind words.

"The old general's words are biased!" Li Xin smiled and smoothed things over, "You and I are on the battlefield, annihilating the enemy and destroying the country, naturally it will make the king happy."

Ying Teng turned around and looked at Li Xin, his face was rather dissatisfied, and he was about to say something, but King Qin Wulie waved his hand, "That's all, I didn't come to you two to make me happy Yes, you are all my great generals, if you really understand to make me happy, then Great Qin will be in danger.”

Ying Teng nodded slightly, it seems that this is the truth. Li Xin smiled slightly, but his eyelids drooped again.

"Let's talk about my plan, what do you think? Is it feasible? If it is feasible, what is the chance of winning? How much damage will our army suffer, and how many years will it take to recover?" King Qin Wulie stared at Two people, asked.

Ying Teng looked at Li Xin, but Li Xin raised his hand and said, "Old General, please speak first."

Ying Teng nodded, "Your Majesty, if you want to take the Central Plains, you must first eliminate the border troubles. There is no problem with the strategy set by Your Majesty. Our country and the Xiongnu have a very long border area, and they will come here every year. In order to deal with them , We spent a lot of military and material resources, which made us not have enough power to sweep the Central Plains. Therefore, it is correct to solve them first in theory. I am just worried that this time the Huns have assembled such a huge army Troops, can we win the battle?"

"Li Xin, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, the Huns are mainly cavalry, and they come and go like the wind. In the past, it was difficult for us to seize his main force for a decisive battle. This is why we have never been able to deal with them even though our national strength is far superior to the Huns. Once with the help of Ye Tiannan, the King of the Huns actually assembled the main force to take Zhao Guodaijun. For us, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It cannot be missed, and it will never come again. If we give up this opportunity, we will probably never again There is a chance to severely injure the Xiongnu and solve the border problem in one fell swoop." Li Xin's tone was affirmative, "So, I agree with the king's idea."

"I don't disagree!" Ying Teng looked at King Qin Wulie, "The opportunity is indeed rare, but we must first evaluate the possible losses we may suffer."

"Uncle, did the Prime Minister look for you yesterday?" King Qin Wulie said suddenly.

"That's right!" Ying Teng didn't care about King Qin Wulie's attitude, "But he can't influence my thoughts, I just want to ask the king to be more cautious, the plan proposed by the Prime Minister is not unfeasible, so In the borderlands, build the city walls extensively and connect them into one body. Once successful, only a small amount of troops will be needed to stop the Huns from invading.”

King Qin Wulie smiled, "Has the Prime Minister ever told you how much manpower and material resources are needed to build a city wall of this scale, and how much money is consumed in our treasury?"

Ying Teng shook his head, "I don't know, he didn't say it, but it must be a lot. But I think, if you can spend money to solve the problem, you can save old Qin Erlang's blood, and it's worth it."

"Uncle, you are wrong!" King Qin Wulie shook his head and said, "It will take decades to build a city wall of this scale, and even if it is completed, it may not be able to stop the Huns."

King Qin Wulie lay down on the ground, drawing his hand across the lines on the ground, "Look, uncle, with such a vast border line, can we judge where the Huns will attack from? After building the city wall, the offensive and defensive positions will change. From then on Even if the enemy attacks and we defend, with the city wall, my old Qin people must be slack. We must know that defending the frontier is not based on the city wall, but in the hearts of the people. Once the hearts of the people are slack, there will be thousands of miles of walls, and it is futile. And to build such a Great Wall , will definitely exhaust our Great Qin’s national strength, and within a few decades, we will never think about going further eastward. This strategy is simply not feasible.”

Listening to King Qin Wulie's words, Ying Teng's face changed slightly.

King Qin Wulie smiled and said: "The prime minister has other plans. Neither he nor the people behind him want us to go east. It is their purpose to hold on to the weak and guard against the weak."

Ying Teng was silent for a while, "If the king is determined, the old minister will go all out."

"Okay!" Qin Wulie Wang clapped his hands and laughed, "If you want to make a plan, first solve the Huns who are suffering from the border. Mr. Xiang is old and sick, he should rest more, I can't bear him to work hard for the country, tomorrow I will let him go home to take care of him. What do you think, uncle?"

"Since your Majesty has made up his mind, the Prime Minister should abdicate to make way for the virtuous. Once a war starts, the army must have a solid rear and an endless supply of supplies. The Prime Minister does not approve of this move, so it is not suitable Stay on top of the overall overall situation." Yingteng nodded.

"Uncle agrees, this matter will be easy!" King Qin Wulie clapped his hands and laughed. "How to fight this battle? Do the two generals have some ideas?"

"In this battle, the most important thing is to be surprised. In this regard, we have already taken the lead." This time, Li Xin did not back down and spoke directly," Ye Tiannan painstakingly planned to attack Zhao from all sides. We provided an excellent opportunity. The Hun King thought that we would not let go of this great opportunity to attack Zhao, but unexpectedly our target was him. This battle has not yet begun, and we have already taken the lead machine.”

"Go on."

"In order to guard against us, Zhao Guo transferred all of Zhao Mu's tens of thousands of standing troops in Dai County to the opposite side of us. This gave the Huns a chance to drive straight into Dai County. Dai County must suffer, but the Huns entered The deeper the Dai County, the greater our chances of victory. So the king said that this opportunity is once in a thousand years, and it is true. It is easy to enter, but difficult to come back." Li Xin laughed.

"If you were to command, how would you deal with the Huns? After all, they must have more than 100,000 cavalry!" Qin Wulie asked.

"Your Majesty already has a decision in mind, so you don't need to test your ministers?" Li Xin said with a smile. "Then please express it clearly."

Ying Teng also nodded, "Since Wang Shang has an idea in his mind, he told the old minister and Li Xin that if it is feasible, then we can discuss it."

King Qin Wulie smiled wryly. This uncle with a temper as hard as a rock has never given himself face since he was a child. It has been decades and has never changed. But it is also very strange. , I believe him more and more, and the facts tell me that this approach is right, because I have been on the throne since I was 20 years old, and now I am in my early 40s. From sword to sword, to all kinds of open and secret battles later, this stone-like uncle always stood by his side.

"The Huns have more than 100,000 cavalry, and I, I will give you 200,000 horses, two to one force, including 20,000 cavalry, can you do it?" Qin Wulie said kingly.
